When Business Week magazine ranked the "Best Affordable Suburbs" across the United States, the editors choose Shawnee, Kansas in the metro Kansas City area. That comes as no surprise to the nearly 60,000 residents that already call Shawnee home.

After all, with one of the lowest crime rates in the area and the average commute to work being a quick 20 minutes, it's easy to see how Shawnee became the 3rd fastest growing city in the state of Kansas.

A visit to the bustling Farmer's Market located in the quaint downtown area during the summer months or taking in the State Championship Blues and BBQ Grillers contest are superb ways to see for yourself how Shawnee, Kansas is more than a bedroom community. Shawnee prides itself on being a true city within a city. www.cityofshawnee.org.

Shawnee was originally settled by the Osage Indians and later by the Shawnee Indians. Residents are proud of their heritage and celebrate it with one of the area's most visited historical attractions, Shawnee Town. http://www.shawneetown.org/history/shawnee.html.

When it comes to calling Shawnee home, there's something for just about every taste and budget. You'll find quaint traditional neighborhoods that are always a great investment for first-time home buyers to family-friendly neighborhoods filled with kids riding their bicycles and shooting a few hoops with neighborhood friends. For those who enjoy a little country in their "city-life", the area is filled with beautiful wooded areas and some of the most breathtaking estate home developments in the metro Kansas City area.

Area students have a variety of public and private school options in Shawnee. Most students in the eastern areas of Shawnee attend the Shawnee Mission School District (www.smsd.org) and residents in the western areas attend school in the DeSoto School District (www.usd232.org).

The trend is picking up as far as sales volume. Credit is getting slighly easier to obtain although it will not return, at least anytime soon, to the easy credit access of 2003-2005. Those days are long gone.

Buyers are very interested in the $8,000 tax credit which is spurring interest in the market.

In General, interest rates are at or near generational lows, assuming you have good credit. Now is a great time to buy, while activity is starting up and there is time to get your low low low interest rate locked in.
